HUMBLE BEGINNINGS
Templars were established by Xing on April 4, 2018. Over the years within the community, the army has undergone significant development and has participated in numerous conflicts, including the First Great Holy War, World War VII, and The Templar Exodus. Having experienced various wars and controversies, it is evident that TCP has undoubtedly left an indelible legacy within the community by far.
On the other side, the Void Troops were established by Logical and Kyle104 on April 27, 2025. Despite being new within the community, the individuals leading the army were quickly recognized. They rapidly ascended to the rank of Major army, qualifying with above the maximum of 20 troops since its outset. The army gained notable recognition through its controversies, including a war victory over Doritos, a once Major army.
THE DAWN OF WAR
On August 2, 2025, Void Troops abruptly declared war on Templars. The war was labeled as the War of the Divine Reckoning, severing all of its ties from TCP and ending the Void-Knight brotherhood.
VT ends Void Knights’ alliance and declares Divine Reckoning War.
A vigorous alliance between these two armies ended with hostility and resentment. VT claimed victory in the first Divine Reckoning War, with a score of 15-0-1.
RIVALRY CONTINUES
VT declares war on TCP once again
Peace was short-lived, as Void troops once again declared war on the Templars on November 15, inaugurating the Second Divine Reckoning War. To support their ally, the People’s Imperial Confederations promptly announced their assistance to TCP. As the conflict advanced, it became evident that other armies had their insights on the war, and the Dark Warriors, alongside the Romans, entered the conflict to support VT. With both factions prepared for battle, they stood ready for confrontation. Subsequently, both sides advanced, with TCP invading Kosciusko and VT invading Jerusalem. After 18 intense battles, VT emerged victorious by capturing TCP’s capital, Jerusalem, on November 26. Ultimately, both armies agreed to a compelled forced treaty. The consequences of the war significantly affected TCP in terms of territorial loss, which impacted not only the armies’ territories but also seemingly caused subtle shifts within the leadership of the involved armies.
RIVALRY RE-IGNITES
On January 11, 2026, TCP profoundly declared war on VT, ready to confront them once more. Although the conflict does not involve any territorial disputes, VT has not yet issued a response. With a firm resolve, TCP resolved to ultimately triumph over its adversary, VT.
TCP declaration of war on VT
To gain insight into this situation, Club Penguin Armies contacted both Sidie9 from TCP and Kira from VT for their respective conclusions.
TCP INTERVIEW
Undoubtedly, TCP has had a long rivalry with VT. How do you think it would conclude with this invasion?
Sidie9: Void Troops have been a consistent enemy of the Templars for almost a year now. Unless they take ownership of their mistakes and formally surrender this war, I don’t see the hostilities ending any time soon.
Following your history with Void troops, do you think this would be the last quarrel you have with them?
Sidie9: If our enemy does not submit, this will be the last war they will ever have.
How does TCP plan on winning this?
Sidie9: Complete incapacitation of all Void Troops operations.
Is there any statement you would like to make towards VT?
Sidie9: Enjoy your Century of Humiliation!
VT INTERVIEW
TCP declared war on VT, but there’s no response from VT’s behalf. Is there a reason for it?
Kira: Cause they r boooooooring
How does VT intend to respond?
Kira: We don’t really care
Any plans on how VT intends to win?
Kira: it isn’t a war theres nothing to win
Is there a statement you’d like to make towards TCP?
Kira: stop larping
Given the significant sequence of events occurring, it raises certain questions. Would this long-lasting rivalry finally conclude? Would VT retaliate?
